The victim`s brother, Jimmy, said Jackson apparently jumped or fell in the lagoon and began to struggle when he was about 10 feet out into the water before he went under.

Jackson`s body was found by the Chicago Fire Department and taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital.

In the second drowning, Adel D. Eid, 21, of 4423 N. Sheridan Rd., a Jordanian national who was a student here, drowned trying to retrieve a soccer ball from a lake in the Indian Boundary Forest Preserve District.

The drowning occurred at Axe Head Lake, near Touhy Avenue and River Road. Eid was pronounced dead at Holy Family Hospital, Des Plaines.

Friends told Forest Preserve Police that Eid jumped into the lake and tried to swim to the ball that had been kicked about 20 feet out from shore when he went under.
